U. S. Senator (and Gubenetorial Candidate) David Vitter

Sen. David Vitter (R-La), candidate for Louisiana Governor, routinely conducts town hall meetings to obtain feedback from his constituents across the state of Louisiana.  Over the course of his tenure as a U. S. Senator, he has conducted over 380 such live town hall meetings across all 64 Louisiana parishes.  Additionally, Sen. Vitter has conducted over 200 telephone town hall meetings.  Sound Off Louisiana attended Sen. Vitter’s last two meetings:  Livingston on May 4, 2015 during which he sounded off regarding Louisiana’s excessive number of boards and commissions, and East Baton Rouge on June 1, 2015 during which he sounded off on the inefficient use of taxpayer dollars funneled into the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) trust fund.  Video highlights follow:
